At least you aren't trying to pretend this is something it isn't! A pretty amazing floral display, although it does look like a strong wind would topple it over. Gave me a smile.

Originally posted by nam: I gave this one of my top scores (9 and I only had two 10's in the challenge) and hoped it would be higher - but I was afraid it wasn't "fence" enough for many. I do adore the depth of field and though I am not usually all that fond of selective color, I think it works nicely here. Nice finish.

I knew it wasn't a typical fence shot, but i went for it anyways. The more standard ones that i made i didn't like. 6+ is a decent score. Finished in the Top20. The depth of field was slightly tuned in post processing. Just slightly. As for the selective color, i'm kind of a sucker for it. I love it. I made a version with the gold color left on the "fence" (actually it's a bridge railing). It was too shiny. This way, the red padlock really stands out.

For the curious ones, the writings are in Cyrillic and it says: Moni Viktor. Moni is short for Monika i guess.
